The Liberal Race-Mongering Derby

About three weeks ago, I briefly took notice of a debate between liberals Jonathan Chait and Ta-Nehisi Coates about the “correct” view on race relations. Ann Althouse notices that the debate has continued, and has been recapped by Clare Sostanovich. Let me add two cents: Back in the 1990s, when some piece of legislation was […]

Fake Hate Scandal: ‘University Policy’ Protects Racist Hoax Perpetrator

A student at Michigan’s Grand Valley State University — apparently a black female — decided to “celebrate” Black History Month by writing racial slurs on her own dorm-room door.

My Brother Shut Down Atlanta?

Cosmic fate: My brother Kirby was trapped on I-285 during the big weather-induced disaster in Atlanta.

Police said on Wednesday that Andrea Brazier is now considered a […]

It’s Not Your Help to Give

Anyone who has ever worked in a large organization knows the […]

Post-Trayvon Wave of Anti-White Terrorist Violence Continues Every Day

The New York Post reports: An attacker pummeled a bus passenger so hard he smashed the bones in his face after calling the victim a “cracker” in Manhattan — marking the second time in two days that people appeared to be randomly targeted in racial tirades against white people, authorities said.
